Questions parents keep asking....Has "permissiveness" failed? Do you think parents are beginning to value discipline more? Should a child be allowed to "decide for himself" about his concept of God? My son will obey me at home, but he becomes difficult to manage whenever I take him to a public place. Why is he like that? How can I change him? I have never spanked my three-year-old because I'm afraid it will teach her to hit others and be a violent person. Do you think I am wrong? I have two boys who are two years apart in age. They never stop fighting and arguing. What should I do about this? These are just a few of the problems Dr. Dobson solves in Dare to Discipline. His forthright, practical, reassuring guide explains why children crave firm control, how the best parent-child relationship is built on respect and ultimate loyalty to God--and why discipline is the key to real love.
